re: Saturday Shocker: Tubberville to Cincinnati

I'm from Texas and I don't think anybody here likes Lubbock, expect maybe nostalgic Tech alumni. Even with his connection to the school, there are greener pastures, and it doesn't get much better than Cal and N. Cal. Better program and best place to live in the country. Hell, there might even be less pressure there too.

There were a lot of people who were PISSED that Leach was fired. I think plenty people there would gladly take another damaged goods coach that's been proven to be successful. They could have a buyout clause like Arky's and they could have some sort of sexual discrimination penalty clause, and they haven't ever really gotten the top talent in Texas anyway.

Will be interesting to see whether they are tired of taking chances or not.
